Break an Egg, Build a School!

The Global Challenge Expeditions Team of 2015 has created an initiative to increase financial support, called the Break an Egg, Build a School Challenge. This challenge is to create a video of you breaking an egg in a creative way and donate at www.gcex.org or at your local bank. Post your video on a social media website and nominate 5 friends to do the same! You are welcome to donate without participating in the challenge.

Three classrooms. Seven days. Thirty-six students. One inspired vision.

Our team has the privilege to advance classrooms which will prepare leaders who will reach the nations. Global Challenge Leadership Academy (GLA) is a high school founded by Global Challenge Expeditions. The vision of GLA is to establish an innovative learning environment where young people will become servant leaders with the skill set to impact their own communities. To continue the growth of GLA an ongoing initiative has been the construction of an environmentally friendly campus situated on a nature reserve in Jeffrey’s Bay, South Africa. For more information on GLA, follow this link: www.gla-jbay.org

As the expedition team of 2015 we will be completing the interior of 3 classrooms, which will also equip us with the necessary practical skills to serve the nations. We need your financial support to achieve this!

The required amount is R30,000 ($2610 USD); R10,000 ($870 USD) per classroom.
